This porridge recipe is a #HubSquad submission from one of our lovely members! It is a warming and spicy whole food-based meal. We suggested increasing the serving size of the oats and milk if you’re after a more filling breaky – this makes it more aligned to The Plate Model, with 1 serve carbohydrate and 1 serve protein. Adding some fruit such as fresh or frozen berries is a great way to get a serve of fruit whilst adding a bit of sweetness!. We’ve also added the nutritional content.
